ABSTRACT:
A method and means are provided for observing and recording by time lapse photography the growth of cells such as cancer cells outside the human body while nourishing the cells with human blood so that the situation simulates the actual cell growth within the body. The patient's blood is circulated through an extra corporeal chamber by an arteriovenous shunt, the tissue cells to be monitored being disposed in the chamber under a controlled environment. The chamber has transparent top and bottom covers so that the growing tissue may be properly illuminated by a light source and time lapse photographs taken.
